Tom Douglas was emcee at a gala sold out event at the Paramount last night celebrating Seattle Weekly’s Voracious food awards. Multiple restaurants served their best bites, and multiple bars offered up unique cocktails. Tom was emcee of the Chef Showdown between Jason Stratton (Spinasse) and Seth Caswell (Emmer & Rye). Each chef was paired with a student from the Art Institute of Seattle, and Seth won the competititon.
RSS SubscribeWelcome to Family Meal, a blog that examines all things new and noteworthy in the world of food, wine, and dining.
At family meal, otherwise known as staff meal, there’s no hierarchy; you’re breaking bread with your friends. For those 30 minutes, everyone is equal- and hungry. Family meal is our version of the water cooler- but with better food.
I’ll be sharing my thoughts, tips, and observations, and, in the spirit of family meal, I’ve invited our creative, energetic staff- everyone from line cook to bartender to bookkeeper- to have a say. I hope you’ll add your own comments and join in the conversation.
